Same drill as usual:
  • No caster bashing.
  • Excessive tournament bashing that detracts from game discussion will be met with moderator action. Criticism is welcome, whining is not.
  • In general do your best to stay on topic and discuss what we're all here for: the games.
Enjoy the games guys.

Finding the perfect counter in real time.


Hero looked like he's seen it before, he immediately tried to block the 2nd gas steal.

HerO uses that build all the time, I actually never saw anyone else use it before HerO. Can't use HerO's builds against him.


What the hell is that icon you have? A Walrus with yellow moustache? lmao

I don't get the hate for Gretorp/orb. Both of them seem pretty good, at least in this match. They sound like they know what they're talking about, and they rarely make mistakes.

NASL. Please save the thousands in salary and expenses you pay to have DJWheat and Day9 and give me 1080p quality. I'm a fan of Starcraft 2, and while I enjoy both of those personalities, they're garnishment on a main course I can't enjoy in 360p.


Then pay for it. 5 bucks is not exactly much to ask for 3 days of content.

So, like, 30 people? Lololol.

But seriously, yeah. It's mid-day friday at the venue. People will probably start to show up later, if not tomorrow.

To the people saying 360p is bad..It seems much better then i thought it was going to be. I can see everything fine, but i guess with 480p you can just see stuff way better.

Nothing to do with luck with good players attending, with such a big prize pool no pro that isn't in korea would reject this

I can't get over how incredibly smart of HerO that play was. I'd love to know if he's faced that build before and had that prepared as a response, because if he came up with that on the fly it was brilliant.


I don't actually think that was all masterminded, If you payed attention to when he moved his probe up the ramp he was dodging the building LoS, but hwangsin sent a probe down his ramp at the same time and caught his probe, from there he just decided to put down the gateways anyway and cancel. I do think he wanted to do 3gate zealot pressure into no warpgate stalker by the time his 1 zealot killed 1gas in his main. Similar to how we saw Hero play vs HuK recently.

I guess in retrospect with the amount of games he plays he's definitely seen that build before, he handled it pretty much perfectly.


Also not sure of a standard 4gate would be the best follow up after dual gas steal. 4gate is the most obvious thing to aim for to defend. Even if HwangSin went blink or blink/robo he Hero would still try to defend against 4gate.

Well HerO was ahead in Probes so if HwangSin would wait too long HerO would have already caught up in tech due to his higher income. The one thing that was behind for HerO was his Warpgate research so trying to abuse this seems the right path. But yeah because it was so expected (he already had a Cannon up to help stop the rush) it didn't really work out very well. But realistically it was his only shot.

I dont get it why theres no one coming to see this event live. does it cost so much entrance fee? I mean u can argue abouth the quality or the caster or whatever u want, but the SICK players are still the same! damnit why is noone in the audience?


it's like 1PM on a work day/school day
But somehow they manage to take a day off for MLG!?

I'm not planning on watching the whole event, because i've got other stuff to do and can't really stay awake again like i did for MLG & IPL... however they've improved compared to how last season started and the BO5 format i like a lot. There are still some issues, like the booth views being too big and covering information i want to see... but at least they won't ruin the game i'm looking forward to most with pathatic observing and bad sound (i was really sad last time).

Looking forward to the few matches i will be able to see. I wish NASL the best of luck and hope they continue to improve, but they're lacking behind and won't be a tier 1 tournament any time soon, unless they structurally change things.

Counting on a Hero vs Puma rematch final.


MLG starts at 5 PM, most people are out of school and a lot can get out of work by 5 or are just getting out of work at 5. Do you remember the crowds at IPL3? No one on thurs/friday. Packed on the weekend.
I stand corrected. I knew about the small croud at IPL3, but didn't realize MLG starts later. I always visit TL at some point in the (EU) evening and watch the countdown in the top corner, don't watch the clock.

Go Hero! Go win the game and match!

It would be nice if they had the players stick with one color in the series. Very confusing in mirror match ups.
